Hahahahha yeah I remember the good old days of goal and assist machine at Twente #Ziyechwatch
-
Check out Sinisterra on thurs - Feyenoord v Marseille - all my Feynoord mates rave about him Also if we are looking at an assist machine - cody gakpo from PSV has behind Tadic this year - has 13 assists
-
Its annoying but we know as a team we have struggled with creating good chances for strikers for probably since Koeman. An old friend mentioned from last year Joey Veerman - went to PSV in Jan and has already had 4 goals and 4 assists in 9 games or maybe someone like Noni Madueke from PSV as well, done well the last few years and only 20 and english. Given I watch a fair bit of eredevisie I'd also shout out Luis Sinisterra from Feyenoord, 15 goals and 5 assists this season - watch the game v Marseille on Thurs for a look.

Is our striker problem driven by the ability of our other players to give them decent chances. We could have Mpabbe in this team and I bet he would struggle to get over 10 goals. I havent watched enough Red Bull team games but how do they create chances for their strikers, I think the lack of chances from our CMs or Moi/Armstrong player roles as the weakness, not really the strikers as they are constantly feeding on scraps.
-
These last few games have been as enjoyable as wanking with a pin cushion glove on. I dont know who to blame so everyone is utter shit.
-
weve been utter shit for 6 games now, everyone has just battered us and it would of been 6 losses if it wasnt for fraser. Players and manager need to realise this is shit
-
Maybe romeu can get some heading tips from burnely, he should of scored at least one of his free headers, its inexcusable, we might not be playing better but still 1 goal might of given the team confidence. Not sure who to bring on but I there is plenty of choice who to take off.
-
Shane long makes running in front of his man and making contact into an art form. Seriously having that skill alone helps our game management, he is by far the slyest player in our camp for winning free kicks easily. I love it.
-
I concur we havent had a realiable goalkeeper since niemi, artur was quality but it must be the polish gene that has monumental fuck ups in them like bednerak. I dont know anything about goalkeeping but are there any goalkeepers who can: A) communicate with players B) can kick a football in the direction that they choose, short or long. C) Doesnt own chocolate wrists

Just looked at this and they look good articles just the sort of thing carl was doing on us in the athletic so I will subscribe

Dragan owns loads lots of golf courses, loves the game and one course apparently even Ralph wants to play at Dragan sort out Gareth with free green fees l reckon that would sort it out.

Topic should be MLT allowed to have an opinion and voice it or not.

Young players by their nature are inconsistent but the ceiling to improve is significant. A consistent Broja in 3yrs time could be starting for a champs league team no doubt, he has the skill, pace, talent and seems to scare CBs. What he doesn't have is the experience of being a top flight professional and what that means. I think also our system suits how he plays but I don't know enough about how he played at vitesse to see how he is in another system. Of course try and buy but a 2nd season loan might be the best we can do before he moves on. Also regarding Armstrong, defo a player in there, it just seems to take time with the championship strikers to play and be effective in our system.

I'd rather lose 4-0 when we are this high up the table

went to bed at half time i was so confident of the win.

The Athletic article about Saints' mystery injuries around 60mins
Convict Colony replied to Saint NL's topic in The Saints
Am pretty sure Tom Leach or someone else flagged this earlier last year as I've known about it for ages so bit of a rehash from Sheldon. -
-
It's think Frase had eaten well at the saints pig trough over the years and never played for us so stopping some shots is the least he can do. Like what was he doing waiting to pick up the ball and Fernandes nearly stole it
-
Lovely goal https://streamable.com/yaii57

Reckon he has room to improve his body fat numbers looking at his face

Just died for me

This argument still going then. Horses for courses, Broja came in and made the place his. He will fall out of form and Armstrong will come back in, whose to say he doesn't score a few goals more himself as well. There doesn't always have to be a winner and a loser in discussions even on here. Both are better players than everyone on this forum and have forgotten more about playing In a premier league than we will ever learn. First season in epl requires some adjustments for both in different ways, expect some improvements this 2nd half of the season now.
-
To be fair I feel like we already had the best transfer we could by having new owners in place, I'll take that and 0 in comings today.

Broja was in Monaco the other day.
